Topic: CGMiner error "All devices disabled, cannot mine!" (Read 5564 times)

This thread is pretty old but I figured I'd add on to this thread for posterity as I'm troubleshooting the same issue. I have not figured out what's wrong with my system but your command has a minor typo in it that caused it to give no results. VGA should be capitalised as grep is case sensitive.

 

Well I changed my Xorg file to this

Section "Screen"
   Identifier   "Default Screen"
   DefaultDepth   24
EndSection

Section "Module"
   Load   "glx"
EndSection

which is what I think it was before I edited it (next time, I'll back up my files before changing anything) and I got it back to how it was before.
So I got CGMiner with only one GPU working. 

Any idea how I can get the 2nd one running?

That is what I got.

what exactly would I be looking for?

Finally got CGMiner to work on my linux Mint system.
Only problem was that it was only running on one of my video cards.

So I changed the xorg file and added the second video card.
My xorg file now looks like

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "5830 (1)"
        Driver      "ati"
        BusID       "PCI:02:00:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "5830 (2)"
        Driver      "ati"
        BusID       "PCI:03:00:0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
   Identifier   "Default Screen"
   Device      "5830 (1)"
   DefaultDepth   24
EndSection

Section "Module"
   Load   "glx"
EndSection

When I restarted my Cinnamon desktop was gone and CGMiner gave me the error "All devices disabled, cannot mine!" when I tried to start it.
To check if I had my PCI BUS ID's correct I did $ lspci | grep vga  which had showed me the Bus ID's yesterday but today gave me nothing at all.
 
Thanks for any help in advanced.
